Not much is known about Kyle. He was born with the ability to speak, but some tramatic event from his childhood robbed him of all speech.
He is known as the Wandering Koala, because he looks innocent and harmless enough, but when necessary, he can unsheath his claws and let loose. He wanders around showing up when needed.
Kyle is a master of the martial arts, both hand-to-hand combat and weapons. His kicks deliver devastating blows. He carries a pair of modified sais with handholds in the hilt. He also has throwing blades and a bola. He carries a mysterious compass that points to whomever needs his help the most.
Brent Jakes was studying to become an accountant when he heard a lecture by Professor Brian Lyman about Physics. That set him on a new course. In his freetime, he discovered the elusive theory that had been plaguing scientists since Einstein: The Unified Field Theory. This theory would bring incredible benefits to all of society. Unfortunately, it would also end the careers of several established scientists.
Brent has an uncanny intuition when it comes to physics. He is able to identify and describe phenomena that has stumped the best minds of the last century. This ability extends into the other sciences as well, but he has little interest in those.
Professor Richmond Louis spent years teaching science at a world-renowned university. He wrote a book called Beyond Hyperspace and the Possibilities of Time Travel which was basically a collection of work from other scientists. He planned for it to be a best seller, but someone came up with a new theory that threw his down the ole' drain.
Professor Louis has no special abilities.
Prof. Gerry has spent most of his life studying physics. His career was built on the formulation of almost all of the current theories we use. He would be pretty upset if someone were to disprove his life's work.
Prof. Gerry is a master at negotiation, because he looks so silly and incompetent, his opponents all underestimate him.
Jeremiah didn't know what he wanted to do when he grew up, he just knew he didn't want to work. So he pursued a doctorate degree, got a job with a large firm, and hasn't had to work a day in his life to collect a large paycheck.
Jeremiah has the unique gift to extract large amounts of money from the taxpayers and show nothing in return.
The Dean is head of the College of Physical Sciences at Brennen University. He is also the current chairman of the Secret Society Scientifica.
The Dean has strong leadership and management skills.
